So what is the recourse?
You sue the town for violating state law.
The town either settles, or you go to court, and if you win, the court compels them to comply with the law, and the town probably has to cover legal fees.
Then the older, more conservative types got wind of it and ended up fielding three candidates, all of whom split the vote allowing Moore to win.
So in the end, he spent his last months of high school being the principal’s boss and being called “sir” instead of being yelled at for having his shirt untucked again.
In practice I'm sure this is mostly just people who do almost nothing for anyone collecting tax dollars for themselves with no consequences.
That's what the auditors are supposed to be for, after all.
It’s rare for a libertarian to get elected, even more so in a write-in scenario.
That's the best opportunity for a dedicated candidate to rally enough support to get elected even if they aren't one of the two major parties, especially to a relatively small potatoes office like this.
Should be a good time. I'd assume eventually it'll come down to lawyers when you get ignored too much or they try to throw you out.
I'm not a lawyer, the above is just my first instinct.
I'd assume it eventually comes down to a real estate broker who literally doesn't know how to run an audit but none-the-less ran for auditor, being sworn in by people who NEVER INTENDED TO NOT SWEAR HIM IN, sitting in front of an excel spreadsheet, and either finding nothing or making shit up. Since the town is already audited by an external CPA firm that is fairly large and doesn't have any incentive to run cover-up for a tiny township.
As for how to learn to do the job, I'd be surprised if there's not a youtube series on it. There is for every other dumb thing I look up.
He doesn't have the power to conduct audits when the township hires a CPA for that.
